    Worldwide, in 4x4 multipurpose vehi-cle field, its difficult to find an alter-native.BREMACH has managed to expand its business on 3 continents (Europe, Africa, Latin America) and more than 30 countries worldwide through stra-tegic alliances and joint ventures. Thanks to its characteristic versatility, enjoyed by more than 50 years of ex-perience acquired in the Italian mar-ket, BREMACH is the key of success, that allows access to almost all busi-ness sectors: from oil drilling sites and assistance in prohibitive areas such as fire fighting, winter maintenance, civil protection or even converted to the ultimate camper van for leisure use.

    It is not easy to internationalize a small medium company with a deep-rooted Italian industrial culture. To do this, you need to be open-minded and pragmatic,BREMACH is both.

    Born in Brescia in 1978, after graduating in Mechanical Engineering, he came in BRE-MACH in 2006, with experience of working in the field of engineering.Eclectic and multifaceted nature, he coor-dinates a solid team of collaborators, wor-king within BREMACH across a wide range of different areas of the company: from marketing to international development projects.

    I had the dream to create in Italy a company with the same competences of Steyr-Puch.

    I have managed to coagulate in PRO.DE, with a series of ag-gregations, engineering and technology to produce 4WD vehicles.The imperative that marked the work during these years has been inspired by the exclamation of Annibale before the impossibility of crossing the Alps with elephants: we will find a way or we build a new ones

    T-REX

    Born in 1963, DARMAK (merging with SIPEC and vE&D) is one of the most important indipendent developing vehi-cle center in Italy.With the headquarters in Turin and Brescia, DARMAK offers a complete service from product engineering to its vali-dation within the engine, transmission, chassis and SIEE, using the most advanced CAD and CAE systems. DARMAK merged into PRO.DE in 2005.

    I took over vALSELLA MECCANOTECNICA in 1999 to give a production site for the core business of the group.vALSELLA merged into PRO.DE in 2005.

    BREMACH was born in the late 50s in Varese, northern Italy, as mechanical workshop. From an Aermacchi conceive, company which until then was devoted to the military market, was born the three-wheel project, with economy characteristics of operation and absolu-te reliability, designed for short transports.BREMACH developed the 4 wheel drive vehicles in the 70s.I took over BREMACH in 2000, saving it from extinction, because I wanted to give a product integration to my historical enginee-ring automotive sector core business.BREMACH merged into PRO.DE in 2005.

    BREMACH HISTORY

  • 6

  • 7THE BIRTH OF T-REXSteeve BERNAUD-HEYD creator of T-REX

    I created T-REX as a true sports car, aggressive, slim, and with a powerful design.

    Born in France in 1972, Steeve started his career as Car Designer in 92 at BUGATTI, where he worked on EB110, EB112 and Lotus Elise.He realised also numerous prestigious prototypes such as Ferrari (225S, 500 TRC), Bucciali, Hispano-Suiza, Maserati.He joined PRO.DE group in 1996 as Head of Design where it had been entrusted him the development of severals vehicles: Iveco Daily Combi, ASTRA, FIAT Ducato.Moreovere, he had worked as Head of Design for TOURING SUPERLEGGERA bodyshop where he created new vehicles (Maserati, Alfa-Romeo, Lancia, BMW).He has taken over the T-Rex project since 2005.

    T-REX is a special vehicle, with its space-frame visible. Its the first industrial vehicle which has an external skeleton!The pannels (roof, bonnet, lateral sides ) do not have any structural function, but only esthetic ones.Steeve BERNAUD-HEYD drew inspiration from fighter planes to make the vehicle internal, developing a real COCKPIT.In fact, the dashboard is made of stainless steel panel on which are installed the various commands. The visibility and ergonomics have been optimized to give intuitive controls.

    I liked T-REX project immediatly, because I had the possibility to start from a blank page.

    The first change I made, includes the slipping forward of the wheels up to the maximum possible, in order to reduce the front overhang, and increase the attack angle, two important points when it comes to extreme off-road use.

    The first challange of T-REX?Three confortable seats and all the equipment of 2.10m vehicle in only 1.70m wide.

    It was like putting 3 liters of water in a 2-liter bottle!

    Our team had to improve every inch of the vehicle shape to get this!

  • 8

  • 9BREMACH developed series of models and prototypes to verify the vir-tual concept validity.The first prototype was in fact a static model for studies of the engine layout, ergonomics and habitability.After the first one, we made a series of working prototypes, on which had been tested several types of suspensions, engines, anchors.

    From the first sketches,T-REX has been fully designed with computer.Steeve says:Thanks to the virtual engineering systems, we have been able to keep an eye, since the beginning of the project, on all the different aspects of the vehicle and maintain its characteristics:visibility and ergonomics tests, mechanical equipment, maintenance, and of course, structure resistance.We have realized a particular study to improve the aerodynamic flow and to reduce consumption.

    T-REX prototype had been shown in world premiere in 2007 at Motor

    Show, Bologna. The vehicle presented was made with temporary body and frame but with definitive chassis and

    mechanics.

    A conventional structure is expected to be resitant to 2G. Our competitors can achieve 3G for some extreme applications.BREMACH cab was developed to withstand to more than 5G. He does not give only the impression of being the most resistant vehicle ever built, but it really is!

    BREMACH secret is its unusual tubular structure. The tube is the most resistant mechanics material. In fact, the side roll-bar is made starting from a tube which is shaped and rolled through several steel masks, gives the resitance.

    The cabin skeleton is made by a new structure, adaptive space frame, the first model in the world.

    At the right, a conventional floor. On the left, reinforced steel floor, capable to withstand to 5 +1 G!

    MADE TO WITHSTAND TO 6 G

    At the heart of T-REX there is an innovative structure. A tubular profile worked out in 2D and subsequently in 3D, in order to achieve a structure strength never reached before.This innovative concept, used only in the aerospace industry, has been used by BREMACH to be much more resistant than a simple extrution. The T-REX modular structure is made starting from a 100mm diameter tube formed using an elaborate train roller. The advantage is the high resistance. In fact, thanks to this, the steels sheets are welded each other in order to avoid deformations even in case of extreme stresses.

    The roll-bar is shaped in 3 dimensions thanks to a

    specific tube benders use.

    ADAPTATIvE MODULAR SPACE FRAME

  • 17

    IRON MADE T-REX cab is made entirely by steel.

    The lateral sides and the rear roll-bar are made by adaptative modular space frame (see previous page).The front and back panel, and the floor are made using pressed steel, while the reinforcements, under the cab, are made by high-tensile steel.

    The doors are made entirely of steel.Inside, aluminium handles.

    Cab assembly is done in a specialized workshop to ensure the highest quality of assembly structure.

  • PRODUCTION DEPARTMENTAbsolute care in every detail

    There are few vehicles that can boast of being fully handmade nowadays.

    BREMACH is one of this exceptions, along with other dinosaurs as Bentley and Aston-Martin.

    BREMACH is pleased to offer you the best, both for the interior with stainless panels, as well as for the exterior details.

    Never before a commercial vehicle was built with such attention. Its not a vehicle like the others, because each T-REX is Unique!

    Born in 1981 in Brescia, Marco got his degree in Management Engineering. After an experience in England where he worked for Bentley, he returned to Brescia to manage BREMACH production.

    BREMACH strength?Its flexibility! The vehicle is fully assembled by hands, from experts who know it perfectly. Together with our engineering, Bremach is able to offer special solution to meet our customer demands. It is a rare quality in the vehicle manufacturers field.

    Anytime a customer has a specific request, we involve our engineering team. We

    analyze the feasibility and develop the virtual propose. Once we have realized

    the customer propose, the vehicle is developed under marking to give a perfect

    precision to the final piece.
